Our finished projects

 Here are the finished products that we painted.  Here is the bear I made for Ben.
 Hannah's bear
Kenzie's jewelry box.
They all turned out great!  

8 Months old

 Ben is 8 months old already!  I can't believe how fast that went.  He is growing like a weed.  He is now rolling all over the place and can sit pretty good (he only falls when he reaches for toys).  He has one tooth in and more are coming really soon!
He is such a happy little guy.  He has also gotten another haircut, this time by a professional and it turned out much better this time!  He looks like such a little man!

Ayi

Our Ayi.  Her name is Zhao.

Science Night

 We went to Science night last Friday at Kenzie's school.  They had lots of different activities for the kids to do.  Here they are learning about the food groups.
 They drew self portraits, Hannah had a little help from mom.
 Kenzie with her self portrait.
 They made clouds.
And danced!  They had lots of fun going to the different stations and collecting stamps from the teachers after they were all done they got a prize!  It was lots of fun!

 Happy Easter Everyone!  The Easter Bunny made it all the way to China!  Kenzie found her basket right away this morning.
 It took Hannah a little while but she finally found hers!
 Ben didn't have to look to hard this year, but next year he will have to look for it.
 Eggs!!
 Happy 1st Easter Ben!
 Our little Easter Bunnies!
 The girls love their little brother and he loves them!!

Girls Day!

 The girls and I had a day on the town.  We went to As U Wish to paint some projects.
 Hannah hard at work!
 Kenzie hard at work!
 Hannah with her final product, it is a bear.  We can't wait to see how it looks after it gets fired!  Should be nice and colorful!  
Kenzie with her final project, a jewelry box.  I also painted a bear for Ben.  I will post pictures when we get them back.  We had lots of fun and we will definitely be going back.  The girls loved painting and I'll admit it I did too!  We had a great day together just us girls!

Oriental Pearl Tower

 We went to the Pearl Tower on Monday April 2, 2012.  Kenzie has the week off of school for spring break so Gary took a day off so we could go sightseeing a little bit.  The girls have been fascinated with the Pearl Tower since they first saw it, so since it was a beautiful day we decided to go up in the tower and check out the city from above.

 Here we are at the top.
 The view from the top!


 Me and the kids
 Looking down at the other ball.
 On the bigger ball they have this glass floor that you can stand on!




They had a Coca Cola shop downstairs so we got our picture taken with the bear!
We had lots of fun in the tower but we were all ready to go home and rest afterwards!
